Fr. 1194 $50 1882
Grade: PCGS XF 45

Many of the various signature combinations are very scarce and with short printing runs. This is the Lyons-Treat, and only 400,000 were printed. Currently there are just two in collector's hands. The finest known example is a PMG AU 58 which realized $29,900 at a Heritage sale, Lot 17353, in April 2006. This note is a PCGS XF 45 with the appearance of a higher grade. This note has been very conservatively graded by all reports over the years and it is still clearly the second finest known at this time. It has both excellent centering and beautiful color and shows the slightest signs of circulation. It is really a scarce note, even as a type, in this grade.
